True story. I got my CS degree pre-internet. I did well with programming. Some of my friends / peers were less talented. In one of my 300 level courses the assignment was more difficult than usual. I naturally figued it out. They struggled. Evetually I gave a copy of my code / solution to Friends Group A and also to another Group B. They didn't know each other. I said, "Be careful! If you copy, disguise it."* Deadline comes. Everyone hands in their work. The following week, we go to lecture. Prof walks in and writes a list of names on the board. I knew each name. I knew what was happening. I waited for the shoe to drop (i.e., my name on the list). The shoe never dropped** I believe they were all given Ds. Not sure why they didn't fail (F). * In retrospect, this was a stupid on my part. If they knew how to alter enough it's likely they'd be able to write it themselves. That is, I all but suggested they walk on water. ** Also in retrospect, the TAs + prof had to realize I was the source. The class was big but not that big. And if only some completed the assignment correctly, the source had to be not difficult to identify. I'm not sure why I was never pulled aside and spoken to. Thank gawd.
